Excellent collection!

I stopped the habit a few years ago, when books were hitting $4 an issue. Too rich for my blood.

$4 is a bit much, agreed. But you must collect video games if you're a member here, which is far more expensive to collect. :?

Good news, though. DC Comics has lowered all their normal issues (regular monthly titles) to $2.99. Marvel has lowered some, but not all of them like DC Comics has.

Great collection! I'm a huge Green Lantern fan myself, but I haven't bought any issues in well over a year. I stopped right around the time that the Black Lanterns showed up.

Nice collection. You motivated me to continue my Superman collection.
I agree that $3-4 a comic is expensive and I am getting to the point where storing them is becoming a problem since I have to give the kids bedrooms and all :D
I think I may be making the switch to digital comics in Sept when DC starts releasing digital copies the same day as the print. Keep all of your comics because if everyone else thinks like me...

I've actually been getting The Walking Dead and Invincible every month via my iPad... I said I'd never do it, but its just so convenient. I'm actually considering selling the bulk of my comic collection.

I've thought about selling mine off too (about 8 long boxes), but can't bear the thought of getting maybe $100 for them :(

My buddy used to work at a shop where they gave a flat 15 cents per book rate, and people actually did it. I'd hope they had the sense to pull the valuable ones first..

Nice collection! I'm kind of obsessed with the Justice Society myself but I do enjoy Green Lantern as well. So, who's your favourite Green Lantern?
